I downloaded this video 8 years ago and have never built the sheller and nowadays it will cost three times as much for the materials. So much for procrastination.🤦🏼‍♂️

Mornin Cecil! What are you doing these days? Are you still shelling beans?

Did anyone receive feed back on the parts that's missing?

I've been making these traps for a long time and now someone is trying to sue me because they say they invented them in 2009. They've been around long before that!! If anyone can show me a youtube video, advertisement, website, Facebook post or other evidence that is authentic from 2008 or earlier showing a similar carpenter bee trap made out of wood with a bottle at the bottom - - I've got a couple hundred $$ to send you to make it worth your while!!

I need the plans to build Cecil's pea sheller

Could you explain the drum pulley setup

Do you build for hire

Great job of teaching everyone who wanted to know how to build this machine. I’m going to start building next week. I also need more information on the building and components of the flapper. Thanks again the video.

You all guys made the best video I've seen yet with a bean thrasher. Thank you for the fine documentation. Where does one get the plans for such a thing. Would you have to change drums to do purple hulls or just that lid to the basket?

At 12:24 your video shows the rotating circular cage that you spent great detail in describing how to build, but we are suddenly witness to a new and critical component spinning at a higher speed inside of this cage; a very necessary part of the shelling operation that you never once talked about while building the unit - you call them "the flappers" but I have no idea what they are made of or how they are attached to the 3/4" shaft. Are you purposefully omitting that critical detail, or did you forget it, or did I somehow miss their design parameters when watching videos 1 & 2?

Would you have the plans for this sheller?

I always wondered how those machines shelled flat beans and after watching this video I still don’t know but it does work. Thanks

great job with most details and step be step to made your own sheller

Mr Cecil, would you ever so kindly make for us two three of your bee catchers. several bees are living around our newly acquired home here in central Florida. contact for us is email , beingmenow_99@yahoo.com. or call text message 7seven2five3twoninefive4three. Both your videos are very nicely communicated. many thanks for your service and talent sharing. Varanasi Sebastian, Florida 32958 ...and a happy Spring to you mr. Cecil

Good Job Mr Cecil BJ

Great Stuff Mr Cecil. B.J from R-Mart

muy buena su explicacion..ya estoy en capacidad de hacer una parecida...saludo desde vnezuela

muy buena su presentacion amigo...saludos desde venezuela

Thank you.

I see that at 2:23 that the 1 inch X 2 inch X 24 inch strips of wood are held on the shaft by "U" clamps with 1/4-20 washers & nuts. I would use nylon insert nut, so they would not back off. NOTE: the wood may need to be 23-1/2 inches each, so not to hit the cage wall. Great job thanks.

I have built one but it is beating my Peas to death, badly bruising them any suggestions, and how much is cost if I order one from you...

what is the diameter of the basket wheels? And do you have plans? for Sale?

I have a thought... You can buy sticky mouse trap glue in bulk. If you dribbled some of that down into the trap bottle, maybe that would keep them from escaping when you change bottles. That is... if the smell of the glue does not detract the bees. Just a thought.

Great video, Cecil! I have a question. You did not describe much about the pieces of wood that go inside the thrasher, How long are they relative to the barrel? Additionally, are they turning in the same or opposite direction as the barrel? I followed everything in the video except for this last step. How are the beans being separated from their shells?

That is Awesome!!! I always wondered how butter beans are shelled with a machine. I have a Taylor pea sheller and I don't think it would do butter beans. It would flatten them. Thanks for posting.

You make it look easy. Good teacher!!!

I am interested. My email is thechristopherduncan@gmail.com

How much are these traps and how do I buy them?

Cecil, why do you angle the 1/2" holes upwards? We have hundreds of carpenter bees, and I inspected the holes; I can't tell if they are angled or not...

Thank you.... I know what to day later today !

I'm interested in purchasing one. Please give me your email address.

Thank you, sir, for taking the time to make this video. I have a carpenter bee here and there every summer but this spring they are more numerous and aggressive. I built a trap and hung it beneath an enclosed porch where the bees were drilling. This morning, the first warm day that the bees were out I trapped several. I didn't even realize that so many were in my yard. It worked perfectly! Many thanks.

You made a very good video. Everything explained clearly. I will make some traps like this today. I still dont' know why the bees don't come out. I have put up mouse glue traps and they get stuck but it can't hold them. Who would think they are stronger than a mouse?

I am interested in buying one.

Thanks for making this video. Maybe quite a bit of work to make this machine, but shelling by hand is soooo slow (and tedious).

I forgot to thank You for making and sharing such a great video, and sharing it with all of us. Lots of work to build the sheller and film at the same time. Thank You Beans,Beans and more Beans GREAT!

FANTASTIC!!!! Very good machine. I wonder if it would be just as good with dried kidney beans and black eyed beans. You have very good knowledge and you have the wisdom on how to apply it. I just moved to Central America ( Panama ) and i want to grow some beans for eating. I would love to have the plans for your sheller and try to make one. Again FANTASTIC! Thank You

Thank You for this video Cecil. We've had to replace two posts on our privacy fence because of the damage these bees have done weakening the 4X4s. It was no easy task digging 4 feet of lumber set in concrete and I don't want to have a repeat experience anytime soon.

Awesome Video!!.....Thanks!!

I just bought one that uses a mason jar for the catcher, but also a plastic soda bottle funnel. Works like a charm! Thanks for the video!

Thank-you, I could sure use this on the farm. They love all this fresh wood I use for framing. My friend told me these bees made a perfect 9/16" hole. I know you said to use a 1/2" size so I'll give it a try. Very innovative!

Thats a very nice job Cecil. You are very talented. I noticed the aluminum brake in the background. I've done a little siding and seamless gutters in my lifetime. I really want to build one of these but it looks like its gotta be huge to be effective. I'm still thinking on it. Anyway, once again, Great JOB!!

Do you have a set of plans and instructions for this sheller? I would like to build a scaled down version maybe half the size. Good job on the video and sheller. My email is mediadad4us@aol.com. Thank you very much.

Thanks Cecil..I just made mine today and it was easy!

Cecil- I did an article on my blog about your traps and already a person would like you to build one or two for them. Can you post your contact info here or on my blog? pest cemetery dot com

Your righty these bees are agrivating, and I cant wait to assemble a few of the bee catchers. You say make sure it doent swing when mounted How important is this?

Dude, I love your accent! You are truly a country gentleman!

Thanks! I know what I'm doing today after lunch.
